Dear Marcia,
I hope you can find some peace in knowing that you have been a wonderful daughter and that you have given yourself unselfishly to caring for your mother. I pray that you will soon be able to replace the heartache and sadness with smiles as you remember the good times that you have had with your mom during her lifetime. My heart goes out to you for your great loss.
Ann
